LetsEncrypt Support - Automate Updates?
Posted: Mon Aug 22, 2016 4:02 am
Hi,
I have been working on getting a complete vesta server running and finally all is looking well. Apart from some certificate issues (client warnings) with IMAP everything is working pretty well. I have used the vesta CLI tools to setup SSL certificates for my domains and all is working well, super simple.
But, one final question about LetsEncrypt and Vesta. I noticed the v-update-letsencrypt-ssl CLI tool and tried running from bash and it returned nothing, no errors. So, I looked at the script contents and it says to be used to automatically update all LE ssl domains. Great, so my thought was to just setup a cron job to run this.
So, I added "sudo /usr/local/vesta/bin/v-update-letsencrypt-ssl" as a new cron job in Vesta that runs every other month.
My question is, is this correct? Should this keep all my domain's certificates updated assuming I manually set them up with the CLI when adding the domain?
Thanks.
